Is it true that the results of part 'A' of the AVC 2008 will be posted after part 'B' is completed aswell?

Jeff, the Challenge page on the site suggests we need to use an online form to post 'official' critiques of our fellow competitors work for challenge 1 by 2nd May, but I can't see a link to it anywhere. Any ideas?

No there will be a form I will provide later to input the links to the crits you post. The crits are still posted on the forums.

Okay, so now we're on to #2, time for another wave of questions

We've got a minimum resolution (720x486... what is that, PAL DVD?) and AVI or Quicktime. Maybe we need some requirement on what codecs we can use in an AVI file. Are there any length guidelines?

Music... I'm a bit concerned about getting music with rights... does this count as not for profit for purposes of getting free Moby tracks?

That's the minimum resolution, so that means it can be PAL or NTSC. Any Codec is fine as long as it's not too obscrure or no one will have it. The idea here is that anyone will be able to view your video without having to download a new codec somewhere.

I think this would be considered non-profit, so you should be able to use the Moby tracks. There is a form you have to fill out when you download the tracks and how it will be used, so just explain how you are using them.

Hi Jeff, it seems that the image i have uploaded is smaller than the minimum dimension requirements of 2000px. I seem to have misinterpreted the rule as i had spent long nights without sleep preparing the image.

would i be disqualified or lose points for my action?

furthermore, i have the other image ready, unedited, just a bigger resolution that i could provide if no one objects?!

I realize it's my responsibility, and i take full responsibilty for my action, just wondering if there was anything i could do to rectify the situattion.

anyway, your thoughts on the matter please.
thanks

amer

If you email me the file as zipped TIFF file, I'll take a look and upload. The resolution rule is only in place so that it can be used in print and for CGA & partners to use for marketing.
